Grandma's best baking recipes

There’s nothing quite like the memory of freshly baked treats right out of the oven after school or when visiting grandma. Each nanna had their specialty, from biscuits and fruit cakes to slices and pies. Intertwined in these memories of Australian baking is Fairy margarine. For over 50 years, Fairy has helped Australians and grandmas create baked goods with the delicious taste you remember from childhood. We went back to their heritage cookbooks to find the original recipes, and gave them moden updates so these traditional baking recipes can be enjoyed by a new generation.

Choc-mint Brownie Slice

The chocolate mint combo is a classic that goes way back. As does the chocolate mint slice that originally made Australians fall in love with that choc-mint flavour. The new and improved Choc-mint Brownie Slice stays relatively true to the original, with an ultra smooth, silky texture.

Mini Pineapple Upside Down Cakes

Pineapple cakes have stood the test of time thanks to their fruity flavours and rich, sticky texture. We’ve updated this recipe by cooking glossy pineapple upside down cakes in muffin tins for ease of today’s busy cooks. Also great for avoiding fights over the last slice!
